Give Varget a try, right around 25 grains.

Tried them a few years ago in my Savage with a 1 in 9 factory barrel (actually measured out at 1 in 8 3/4) and had no luck in stabilizing them....although I can shoot 75 Gr Amax all day long, out to 1000 yrds very well. If you have a 1 in 8, you will be ok.

25 gr of RL15 in a Wylde chamber.

Depending on your oal- If you're loading to mag length (2.260") then tone it down a bit. I've loaded with 23.5 to 24.0 grains of Varget.
